Common Conditions
Arthritis
Arthritis
Arthritis can affect any part of the body, even the spine. It occurs when the cartilage in the joints is worn down as a result of wear and tear, aging, injury or misuse.
Bulging Discs
Bulging Discs
A bulging disc is a condition related to the spine, usually the lower back, occurring when a disc bulges through a crevice in the spine.
Degenerative Discs
Degenerative Discs
Degenerative disc disease is not really a disease, but a term used to describe the normal changes in your spinal discs as you age.
Facet Disease
Facet Disease
The facet joints are the joint structures that connect the vertebrae to one another. Facet disease occurs when there is degeneration of the facet joint.
Foraminal Stenosis
Foraminal Stenosis
Quite similar to spinal stenosis, foraminal stenosis primarily affects one or more areas of your spine.
Herniated Disc (Slipped Disc, Ruptured Disc, Torn Disc)
Herniated Disc
(Slipped Disc, Ruptured Disc, Torn Disc)
A herniated disc is sometimes referred to as a slipped disc or a ruptured disc. It is often the result of an injury or trauma to the spine.
Peripheral Neuropathy
Peripheral Neuropathy
The peripheral nerves emerge from the spinal cord and are assigned particular sections of the body to communicate with— these sections are called dermatomes. Peripheral neuropathy is the result of damage to one or more of these nerves.
Pinched Nerve
Pinched Nerve
A pinched nerve occurs when too much pressure is applied to a nerve by surrounding tissues such as bone spurs, disc herniation and ligaments.
Sciatica
Sciatica
Sciatica and sciatic pain occur when extra pressure is placed on the sciatic nerve. This additional pressure can occur as a result of several spine conditions.
Scoliosis
Scoliosis
Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine. If your child has scoliosis, the view from behind may reveal one or more abnormal curves.
Spinal Stenosis
Spinal Stenosis
Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of one or more areas in your spine most often in your upper or lower back. This narrowing can put pressure on your spinal cord or on the nerves that branch out from the compressed areas.
